Adventure Trips in Tanzania

Where the wild is waiting: climb Kilimanjaro, come face to face with wild chimpanzees and lose yourself in nature. Every trip we offer is an immersive safari, made to measure and full of discovery and adventure. Do you feel ready to step beyond the ordinary?

We created our adventure trips in Tanzania for travellers who are after excitement, freedom and moments in the wild they will never forget. Maybe you’re hiking up to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro, following chimpanzees through age-old rainforest or spending the night under canvas deep in the Serengeti; whichever it is, each experience is shaped around your appetite for adventure.

Think of it as more than a safari. It is a journey designed for active, inquisitive explorers who want a close bond with nature, who like to push themselves and who welcome the unexpected. Through tailor-made itineraries, experienced local guides and carefully chosen adventure lodges, we let you feel Tanzania at its most raw and exhilarating – from the savannah all the way to the sea. Best of all, everything is planned around you.

The ultimate wildlife adventure: finding the Big Five

One of the most exciting parts of an adventure trip in Tanzania is searching for the Big Five: lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino. Don't expect to sit back and simply watch, though. It is a thrilling journey across some of the best-known landscapes in Africa, where any movement in the grass might turn into an encounter you will never forget.

Perhaps you are rattling across the Serengeti in a 4×4 with an open roof, walking with a ranger in Ngorongoro or searching the horizon at dawn in Ruaha: the search itself is part of the magic. Wildlife viewing does not get more raw, immersive or exciting than this, and every moment belongs to the adventure.

Thrilling Activities for the Adventurous Spirit

Tanzania is a playground for adventure seekers. Whether you're chasing panoramic views, rare wildlife sightings, or adrenaline-fueled moments, there’s no shortage of active experiences to choose from.

Extend Your Adventure in Zanzibar

Once your exciting safari or tough trek is over, an adventure of another sort is the ideal way to unwind: the island paradise of Zanzibar. With everything from snorkelling and diving in turquoise water to kitesurfing along the east coast, Zanzibar gives active travellers plenty of choice, as well as excellent opportunities to relax.

Wander through the spice markets of Stone Town, sail into the sunset aboard a traditional dhow or just enjoy the sun on soft, powdery beaches once your safari is done. It combines tropical discovery with barefoot luxury perfectly. A fitting reward after your adventure trip.
